NetworkNewsWire Announces Publication on Various Companies Involved in The Booming Cannabis Industry

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Apr 20, 2017) - NetworkNewsWire ("NNW"), a multifaceted financial news and publishing company, today announces the publication of an editorial featuring SinglePoint, Inc. ( OTC : SING ), an NNW client focused on strengthening its position in the marijuana industry through the acquisition of, or investment in, small to mid-sized cannabis companies.

The publication, entitled "After Ten Thousand Years and Countless Uses, Cannabis Still Has a Bright Future," discusses the history of cannabis use and how various companies are benefiting from the marijuana industry today.

"SinglePoint (SING) grew out of a text messaging and mobile payments business and has embarked on a strategy of acquiring small to mid-sized companies that offered mobile technologies. While initially focused on operating a mobile commerce and communications platform for vendors who wanted to accept mobile credit card payments, about two years ago SinglePoint began focusing on how to apply its mobile payments and merchant processing solutions to medical marijuana dispensaries.

"As it continues its acquisition strategy, SinglePoint is, however, playing it safe by only targeting businesses that do not 'touch the plant.' An example is the stake taken recently in the Jacksam Corp., doing business as Convectium, a profitable California-based provider of equipment, branding and packaging solutions for the cannabis industry."

About SinglePoint, Inc.SinglePoint, Inc. (SING) has grown from a full-service mobile technology provider to a publicly traded holding company. Through diversification into horizontal markets, SinglePoint is building its portfolio by acquiring an interest in undervalued subsidiaries, thereby providing a rich, diversified holding base. Through its subsidiary company SingleSeed the company is providing products and services to the cannabis industry.
